Gave me a compliment

What’s the kindest thing someone has ever done for you? A lot of my life has been spent living in emotional pain from loneliness. In high school an English teacher I wasn’t even in class with would stop me in the hall and tell me I was doing a good job and to keep my…

Reds Army

I found this cool concept of creating a cast of characters while studying other cartoonist.

Addiction

Dark desolated passage way through, Portal wide apart calling us forward, Running backwards, Horrified faces scream, Silence echoes in return, Caverned hell gapes ahead, Arms stretch outwards grasping for solid soul, Closer we creep, harder we fight, Life in helpless moment, Under the skin we feel those crawling insects of fear, Goosebumps surge as adrenaline…

Contemplations

Sitting here full of contemplations, Mind ticking through file after file, Stacks of discarded memories hover, Floating about the ethereal regions of far off memory, Grasping at strings, Attempting to fill the gaps with empty boxes, Imaginative speculations leading to paranoid delusions, This or that, tit for tat, Crazily spelunking down cavern walls, Deeper into…

Friends Hand in Hand

Poet Traveler

Souls In Poverty

Optics

Rich are the optics of the well liked, Dark are the same closets, For everyone holds a darkness within, A twisted form of ourselves, Some take pride, Some fear it, Some work to overcome it, While others seek to perfect it, Our nature, the true nature, The soul of our being, That is the true…

In Defeat I Found My Journey

It’s been a journey, Somewhere along the way, My store of motivation fell away, Now when I wake to start my day, It is harder and harder to push forward, Each step, each step I feel the chains, Fighting against the world, Pushing past the pain, Growing muscles and strength of character. In defeat I…
